Stop reading bedtime stories to your kids. This is solid proof that just because you have a lot of education, it doesn't mean you have rational thoughts on some topics. And remember, idiots like these are teaching our children.

According to a professor at the University of Warwick in England, parents who read to their kids should be thinking about how they’re “unfairly disadvantaging other people’s children” by doing so.

Unfortunately, there are idiots like this all over. Your best bet is to be sure you educate your children at home regarding life, values, morals, ethics and anything else other that "reading, writing and arithmetic".

Yeah, I don't think the University of Home Schooling is a valid degree....

As if liberals in the US don't have the same opinion that helping your own children is the same thing as putting others at a disadvantage. That's the entire liberal argument against "the rich" (aka anyone not on government assistance).
